"The flexibility of Peace University enabled me to complete my Bachelor's in Interfaith Relations while continuing my work at a local community shelter. The curriculum was immediately applicable, and today, I head my organization's outreach program."
Sarah Jenkins, BA '24
Director of Interfaith Relations, Global Outreach Alliance
"The Master of Divinity program gave me a profound theological baseline combined with practical leadership and conflict administration training. It didn't just teach me theology; it taught me how to lead a diverse community with grace."
